2006-04-10 Thread Anthony E. Caudel
I sometimes have to add my user to a group. This of course doesn't take effect until I log out and back in. However, if I'm under X, I can't logout without first exiting X. So, I'm wondering if there is any way to re-log the user without exiting X? Tony -- Those who would give up essential Lib
